12-6 might sneak us into a play-in game if things break right, but even then, probably not enough.

We're 88th in the NET with 1 win in the top 3 Quads. We have a bad Quad 3 loss. We aren't even close to the bubble. 8-0 against Quad 4, we tried to game the system but teams were worse than expected and we didn't blow them all out.

To have any hope, we have to get some big wins and avoid bad losses.
Right now, 9 ACC teams are in the top 45 in the NET - I think that's good. Of course, we're 14th...
There are some opportunities to stack some wins and help the NET - have to get some wins over Clemson, Miami, SMU, Cal and UNC at home - probably need at least 3 of those, along with handling ND, VT.
Have to sneak a few wins on the road against better teams - @NC State, @Duke, @UNC, @UVA, @Louisville.
Obviously, can't be blowing games against Pitt, FSU, GTech or BC - 5 total games. Have 4 of those games to start January, so we'll need pretty quickly if this team has any real hope for the final 2 months.

Losing that Hofstra game and having only 1 win over the top 3 Quads is really a bad situation to be in heading into ACC play. It's going to be a real uphill battle for this team.
